SOMEONE TOLD ME TO SHUT UP

It is getting late..

I can't sleep..

And of course I laid down,

 cause I want to go to sleep.

 But something has been nagging at all me all weekend.

Someone told me to shut up. They got this real mean look on their face, and said, "I mean this is in the nicest way, but shut up about always saying thank you." (and the way this person said it, you could tell they were angry) I was taken aback. I didn't say anything. But my spirit was confused. The human side of me wanted to say, "Who the hell do you think you are telling me to shut up?" "And your telling me to shut up, because I say thank you all the time?" It didn't make sense. Someone is trying to change the way I think, and what I say. All over a thank you?

First, I forgive that person. I'm going to have to. I am glad my  B.C. days didn't take over. (B.C. stands for my before Christ days lol) The Arsonist would have shut this person down.. however.. I am not who I was. The A.C. days (A.C. stands for After Christ found me)  that lives in me now gives me strength to hold my tongue. I can not take it personally, and can not be offended easily.

I am still going to say thank you. Even to that person who told me to shut up. I come in peace, and I leave in peace. No one is going take the joy that my heavenly father provides me on a daily basis. Maybe, I come from a background where all you can do is say thank you, because you don't have anything else to hold on to. Maybe I say thank you, because I am actually very thankful. I am appreciative. The Devil can't still all my joy. Satan and his bullies are always on the attack! He can't stand it. Satan can't even stand it when I say thank you. Okay then?????  I'm not going to stop saying Thank You, and whoever doesn't want to be told thank you, then maybe you shouldn't be around me. Cause Satan already know that he doesn't get to use me as a light switch that he can turn off and on, when he feels like it. The light is on!

So tonight, I like to say THANK YOU!!!

Thank you because I am free.

Thank you because you rescued me,

 when I couldn't rescue myself.

Thank you for waking me up everyday,

because that means you have something you want me to do. Thank you Lord for the smiles on my children's face.

 Thank you for the heat at night

 that keeps me and my family warm.

THANK you Lord, for saving a sinner like me.

Thank you Lord for blessing me, when I was the least worthy. Thank you Lord for getting me out of your way,

 so you could do your purpose through me.

 Thank you for all the people reading the blog.

 Thank you for the uplifting, and friends that are really friends. Shoot Lord thank you for the struggle,

cause that means you are still working on me! 

How can I not say Thank you?

Now I am going to bed,

 and it is with a thankful heart, I say goodnight.

and Thank you. (smile)

God bless. Crystal
